Out of this same light, out of the central mind, We make a dwelling in the evening air, In which being there together is enough. - Wallace Stevens

Out of this same light, out of the central mind,
We make a dwelling in the evening air,
In which being there together is enough.

Additional quotes by Wallace Stevens

Be the voice of night and Florida in my ear.
Use dusky words and dusky images.
Darken your speech.

Speak, even, as if I did not hear you speaking,
But spoke for you perfectly in my thoughts,
Conceiving words,

As the night conceives the sea-sounds in silence,
And out of their droning sibilants makes
A serenade.
